I have another pair of Ghurks shorts I bought several years ago and the buttons are metal and the buckles are stamped and the cut is appropriately generous. The new ones are probably better cloth but the buttons are plastic, the buckles are heavy squarish cast pieces and the fit (of the same waste size) is rather...trim? Still a good value but this run isn't quite as good.

Well made, fantastic fabric and color. I cannot assess if they live up to original Gurkha shorts as I have never seen them except on photos. They are true to size if you measure at the waist at the level of the navel. Rather baggy but old photos suggest that they were made that way. I wore them during holidays in Cuba and the roomy cut was perfect in the hot and humid climate. The huge side pockets provide plenty of room. As described in previous comments they are rather long but I rolled them up which works fine and looks good, too.
